I am in desperate need of help!!

My partner has just been recently diagnosed with Coeliacs and we are struggling to adjust.

We have bought a bread machine do that I can make bread that he can eat and hopefully cut down on costs but the recipies that i have tast awful!

Does anyone have a bread receipe that does NOT require a bread mix as I want to make it from scratch.

ANy help is extremely greatfully received.

Thank you in advance!!

Bette Hagman's Gluten-Free Gourmet Bakes Bread cookbook was a big help when I was starting out. Everything is from scratch.

Hi Katie,

I have a bread recipe that is the closest thing to wheat bread in taste, texture and mouthfeel.

.

You can happily eat it witout spreading anything on it,

it doesn't need to be refreshed,

it will keep in an air-tight container on the counter for 3 - 4 days,

in the fridge for more than a week and

can be refreshed from the freezer anytime.

.

It bends like wheat bread it tears like wheat bread,

I recently gave a sample to the Head Lecturer in the Bakery College of Ireland,

the response I got back was, he thought it was very good and wants to use the recipe in one of his lectures.

All my recipes are from 'scratch' and can be found on my Web Space Via profile.

Alternately you can copy and paste this address to my Blog, and then in the tags on the right hand side click breads

this will bring up all my gluten-free from scratch bread recipes.

I haven't tried using a bread maker, but I'm very happy with the quality of bread from Annalise Roberts' book Gluten Free Baking Classics So far, I've only tried the Italian bread, but it's such a world of difference from the pre-made cardboard I've been eating that I've made 3 loaves of it already!

Oh - I see she has a new book on bread machine baking:

I haven't seen it yet, but I'd definitely recommend it based on Gluten Free Baking Classics.

Something else to consider is the ingredients. I had trouble finding Millet flour at my local health food store (which is pretty good, but somewhat expensive for a lot of the other ingredients I've been using). They did have whole millet, so I've been grinding that in my Vitamix, but that's not a great solution.

This afternoon, I visited an (Asian) Indian grocery store, and found both Millet flour and Sorghum flour, for about $1.50/lb each, which is dirt cheap compared to the health store prices.

The Millet flour is called Bajri, and the Sorghum flour is called Jawar.

I also visited a Chinese Grocers, and found (white) rice flour (which appears to be a finer grind than I've been getting from the health food stores), potato starch, and tapioca flour.

The Chinese grocer also carries a wide variety of rice noodles.

I hope this helps. I thought I'd never eat good tasting bread again without getting sick, and am ecstatic to find out I was wrong.

The only problem I seem to be having is sourcing some of the ingredients.

I am in the UK so i odnt think we sell some of them, but i will try my best :o)

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
